Windshield Wipers and
Washers The multifunction lever operates the
wipers and washers acting on the
windshield when the ignition switch is
placed in RUN or ACC position. The
multifunction lever is located on the
left side of the steering column.
A low fluid level of windshield
washers is indicated by the indicator
light
and by the message on the
instrument cluster.
To refill the fluid, see “Maintenance
Procedures” in section “Maintenance
and Care”.
Windshield Wipers • Rotate the end of the multifunction
lever to one of the four settings to
activate the automatic intermittent setting (see “Rain Sensing Wipers”
paragraph in this chapter).
• For low speed wiper operation
(stable position "LO"): rotate the
end of the multifunction control
lever forward to the first trigger
after the intermittent setting.
• Rotate to the second trigger after
the intermittent setting for
high-speed (stable position HI) wiper
operation.
• Rotate the end of the lever
downward to the “MIST” position to
activate a single wipe cycle.
• The wipers will continue to operate
until you release the multifunction
lever.
• To turn the wipers off rotate the
lever to “OFF”. CAUTION!
• Turn the windshield wipers off when
driving through an automatic car
wash. The windshield wipers may be
damaged if the wiper control is left
in any position other than “OFF”.
• In cold weather, always turn off the
wiper switch and allow the wipers to
return to the park position before
turning off the engine. If the wiper
switch is left on and the wipers
freeze to the windshield, the wiper
motor may be damaged when the
vehicle is restarted.
• Always remove any buildup of snow
that prevents the windshield wiper
blades from returning to the off
position. If the windshield wiper
control is turned off and the blades
cannot return to the off position, the
wiper motor may be damaged.
Rain Sensing Wipers This feature detects moisture on the
windshield through an internal
rearview mirror integrated sensor,
which automatically activates the
relative wipers.
Rotate forward the end of the
multifunction lever to one of fourUnderstanding the Vehicle

settings to adjust the detection system.
First wiper delay position is the least
sensitive, and fourth wiper delay
position is the most sensitive. Third
position should be used for normal
rain conditions.
The rain sense wipers will
automatically change between an
intermittent wipe, slow wipe and a
fast wipe depending on the amount of
detected moisture sensed by a
particular area of the windshield.
Place the wiper switch in the “OFF”
position when you do not want to use
the automatic intermittent system.
The rain sensing feature can be turned
on and off using the MTC+ System, see
“MTC+ Settings” in section
“Dashboard Instruments and Controls”
for further information.
CAUTION!
• The rain sensing feature may not
function properly by ice or dried salt
water on the windshield.
• Use on the windshield of RainX ®
or
products containing wax or silicone
may reduce rain sensor performance.
The rain sensing system has protective
features for the
wiper blades and arms. It will not operate under the
following conditions:
• Low Temperature Wipe Inhibit : the
rain sensing feature will not operate
when the ignition is in RUN position,
the vehicle is stationary and the
outside temperature is below 32°F
(0°C). To resume, set the automatic
feature on the multifunction lever,
start the engine and drive or wait
until the outside temperature rises
above freezing.
• Wipe Inhibit with Transmission in
Neutral Position : the rain sensing
feature will not operate when the
ignition is placed in the RUN
position, the transmission shift lever
is in the N (Neutral) position and the
vehicle speed is less than 5 mph
(8 km/h). To resume, set the
multifunction lever to the automatic
function or move the shift lever out
of N (Neutral).
Headlights On with Windshield
Wipers When activating this function, the
headlights will light up approximately
10 seconds after the wipers acting on
the windshield are turned on if the
light switch is placed in “AUTO”
position. In addition, the headlights switch off when the wipers are turned
off (position “OFF”) if they were
previously turned by using this
function. Powering on Headlights with
wipers can be activated and
deactivated with the MTC+ System, see
“MTC+ Settings” in section
“Dashboard Instruments and Controls”
for further information.
Wiper Blade Maintenance When the wiper arms acting on the
windshield are in the rest position it is
not possible to check or replace the
blades (Service position) as they are
folded under the hood. To service the
blades (see paragraph “Wiper
Maintenance and Blades
Replacement” in chapter
“Maintenance Procedures” of section
“Maintenance and Care”) it is
necessary to shift the multifunction
lever to “OFF” and the ignition switch
to OFF position.
Shift the control lever within 15
seconds to the “MIST” position
(forward rotation of the end of the
multifunction control lever) and
release. The blades are brought in a
position enabling to open the wiper
arms and change the blades.Understanding the Vehicle

Interior Features Electric Power Outlets The vehicle is equipped with four 12
Volt (13 Amp) electric power outlets,
two available for the front seat
passengers, one for rear seat
passengers and one fitted in the trunk
compartment.
In vehicles equipped with “Smoking
Kit” the electric power outlet inside
the cupholder is replaced with a
cigarette lighter.
All power outlets are supplied only
when the engine is started or the
ignition device set to ACC or RUN .
Power outlets are protected by a fuse.
Insert a cigar lighter or accessory plug
into the power outlets to ensure
proper operation. Otherwise, check
the matching fuse integrity, see “Fuse
Replacement” in section “Maintenance
and Care” for further information.
CAUTION!
• Do not plug in accessories that
exceed the maximum power of 160
Watts (13 Amps) at 12 Volts.
• Power outlets are designed for
accessory plugs only. Do not insert
any other object in the power outlets as this will damage the outlet and
blow the fuse. Damages caused by
improper use of the power outlet are
not covered by the New Vehicle
Limited Warranty.
WARNING!
To avoid serious injury or death:
• Only devices designed for use in this
type of outlet should be inserted
into any 12 Volt outlet.
• Replacing the fuses that protect
power outlets with others of higher
amperage, there is the risk of fire.
• Do not touch with wet hands.
• Close the lids when the plug is not
used and while driving the vehicle.
• If this outlet is mishandled, it may
cause an electric shock and failure.
